Mercedes Moné Talks Owen Hart Cup And Jamie Hayter Match In New AEW Interview

A very recent interview dropped by the AEW has played host to TBS Champion Mercedes Moné alongside Renee Paquette, and, well, the whole conversation is generating all sorts of energizing opinions elsewhere. The clip comes with the official tag of All Elite Wrestling and tantalizes about Moné’s judgments on the Owen Hart Foundation Cup Tournament and her finals match against Jamie Hayter at Double or Nothing. Let’s just say, people have opinions.

Good flow is one thing the interview definitely has. User @soldozz said it was one of Moné’s best promos: “She is getting better at her promos.” Another reply that supports the flow is by @clint4liberty, who called it a “stellar spotlight sit-down interview.” Honestly? Fair enough. Moné has always had hit-or-miss promos for varying audiences, but this seems to hit just fine.

But, of course, some were still not sold. One user, @mtdieseltech81, went so far as to call her “overrated,” while @Baumgartne7369 humorously suggested starting “you can’t wrestle” chants whenever she appears on TV. Harsh? Perhaps. But then, wrestling fans are passionate, and sometimes a tad petty.

Next is all aboard the hype train for Jamie Hayter, as Moné’s impressive muscle gain was pointed out by @PrinxeDJ: “God Mercedes put on so much muscle now.” They added their excitement for Hayter’s return: “Need Jamie to get back to where she once was.” Absolutely poised to be one of those can’t-miss matches as Hayter’s fan base waits for her return.

Meanwhile, @StackingWs took the stats approach and broke down how Moné earned that, for lack of a better word, lately buck on an accounting basis: “Successful STRONG defense on 5/9 ✅ Win Owen 5/25 ✅ Mercedes is 3-0 in the last year vs the previous 3 CMLL Women’s Champions.” Now that is dedication!

The love for Renee Paquette came next, with @Thunderlightyy simply stating “Renee❤️,” while @pettigrewtodd04 commented on her outfit: “Renee looking nice and love the boots.” Classic Renee, stealing focus even when not the focus.

What would a wrestling discussion be without some chaos in it? @theylovemouton and @FleegerPete went back and forth on Moné’s recent defenses, with Pete using the finger emoji for extra emphasis. Stay classy, Twitter.

Well, what people took from the interview was huge. People are invested. Be it hype, doubt, or just simply boot appreciation, that interview will have everyone talking. And with Double or Nothing just around the corner, the chatter isn’t going to slow down anytime soon.
